FUTURES GOLF

FAMILY OPEN FUN DAY We hosted 19 young people participating in a Futures Programme Play and Learn session. In a Family Fun Day, the players enjoyed activities and fun games based on learning golf, including chippers for short game play and crushers for driving. The course and activities were set up and coaching was available by Manawatu-Wanganui Regional Participation Growth Coordinator Rhys Watkins and Joel Macklin Golf Professional from Masterton Golf Club. NZ Golf Love Golf Futures programme has something for young people of all ages and abilities.

Thanks to those members who came along to help out with coaching, food etc

SHE LOVES GOLF

Each Thursday several ladies get together to learn and play golf under the NZ Golf She Loves Golf programme.

Our ladies Pam Bisset, Sue Ross and also Trish Cuttance along with Man-Wang’s Rhys Watkins take these ladies through their paces. The uptake is such that places are limited.
